Calf Workout With Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS)
EMS machine and electrodes recommendations
EMS Workout For The Calves
The stretching of the ankle, which is important for walking and running, is triggered by the contraction of the calf muscle. Shortened calf muscles impair mobility in the ankle joint of the foot. The foot can no longer be pulled fully upward during walking. This can lead to discomfort that can be prevented with strengthened muscles and calf training. With the right EMS machine you can build and train the muscle group of your calf!

Please note:
The current strength should be set so that the intended muscle contracts significantly without feeling pain.
Before your workout you should warm up the muscles to prepare them for the upcoming exercise load. Our EMS TENS combo machine offers pre-installed warm-up-programs, which automatically start right before the actual training program. Therefore you can train very relaxed.
